# Receive Stripe live event

`POST /api/payment-webhooks/stripe/live`

<Info>This API is in beta. Endpoints, fields, and behavior may still change, so avoid depending on it in production.</Info>

<Note>Base44 registers this endpoint with the payment provider for you, and the provider is its only caller. You can't invoke it for your own app or repoint it. It's documented so you can recognize the traffic and read the acknowledgements it returns.</Note>

Receives live-mode Stripe events for apps that have gone live with their own Stripe account.

This endpoint behaves exactly like [Receive Stripe sandbox event](/api-reference/receive-stripe-sandbox-event) and returns the same acknowledgements. It exists separately because live events are signed with a different secret, so Base44 verifies the `Stripe-Signature` header against its live signing secret and rejects anything that doesn't match it.

<Warning>The response includes fields beyond the ones documented here. Don't rely on undocumented response fields, as they can change at any time.</Warning>

## Headers

- `Stripe-Signature` string — Required on every request. Stripe's signature over the raw request body. A request that omits it is rejected with a 400, as is one whose signature doesn't verify.

## Response `200`

How Base44 handled the event.

- PaymentWebhookAck — What Base44 did with an inbound payment webhook event.
  - `status` string, required — How Base44 handled the event. `processed` means it updated app state or recorded revenue, `acknowledged` means the event was valid but needed no action, and `ignored` means it was skipped. The Stripe endpoints also return `logged`, for an event recorded for reporting only.
  - `reason` string, nullable — Why the event needed no action. Present when `status` is `ignored`, and on the `acknowledged` responses that skip an event, such as a transaction that was already approved or one for a zero amount.
  - `action` string, nullable — What Base44 recorded. Present on most `processed` responses.

## Other responses

- `400` — The `Stripe-Signature` header is missing, or the signature doesn't match.
